Ak4tsevEn Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) The Image below suggests that the car has armoured glass, so since bullets can't go through.. how will Niko steal such cars if he can't smash the glass with his elbow or gun? This got me thinking and is pretty obvious that Niko won't be able to steal every car on the street. Many people have pointed out that this car is the same car as the one above, so, Maybe Niko will have keys for certain cars and drive it legitimently (well, minus the tax and insurance) or maybe he can buy cars from showrooms etc... What do you think on this? Discuss... Edited February 4, 2008 by Ak4tsevEn Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/310279-niko-cant-steal-every-car/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

BobbyUK Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 well its a good topic, some cars being harder to break into would actually be quite intresting, of course that glass might just react to bullets that way and the elbow still works in that strange gaming way in which little makes sense. but im actually quite up for cars actually being different apart from just being faster or cooler. GPS speech in expensive cars makes you think that Rockstar are thinking that also Link to comment https://gtaforums.com/topic/310279-niko-cant-steal-every-car/#findComment-1057467494 Share on other sites More sharing options...

derty Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 He can smash that window with his elbow. Dont be a fool. A bullet is very small traveling at a much higher velocity than a huge blunt elbow. This doesn't show anything you claim it to show. Bullets DO that to window glass, elbows smash window glass out. Nothing in that picture points to any special class of glass.

CryptReaperDorian Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 If you ever seen an action/shooting/car chase film you would notice whenever a car's window is shot it mostly leaves bullet holes and cracks but barely ever shatters the windows. Most vehicles will be able to be hijacked, the larger vehicles with higher doors you might have to climb onto it and move over towards the window. Like it said in the preview that you would be able to cling onto vehicles and move towards the passenger door and jump through the window or something like that.

Darrel Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 (edited) If the car shown in the first post is bullet-proof then why are there bullet holes in the car? Bulleproofing stops bullets penetrating the surface they dont stop it from hitting the surface. Of course there are going to be holes, but they haven't actually gone through.

Fulltilt27 Posted February 4, 2008 Share Posted February 4, 2008 The area on the glass looks like it was a shotgun that shot at at? If it was a shotgun that fired at the window it would be completely blown out. What do you think?

Did your parents drop you on your head when u were young?! omg....lolol... Don't be starting a fight now. I actually agree with him just a bit. A bullet would be stronger than an elbow however an elbow has more base area than a bullet so it is possible it would shatter easier with an elbow. Plus your arms can do more than a bullet can, and if a high speed bullet hits a window it'll just most likely pierce and crack the window. Don't ask me how, I'm no scientific genius, but it's just how it works. Elbows shatter, bullets pierce and crack, probably very strong bullets (like from a minigun) would probably shatter.
